1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Chemically modifiable self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-based hole transport layers are crucial for achieving high-efficiency inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, designing molecular structures that simultaneously ensure strong binding affinity, interfacial stability, and optimized energy level alignment remains challenging. Here, we introduce TPA2P ((2-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-1-phosphonovinyl)phosphonic acid), a novel SAM material featuring a conjugated bisphosphonic acid anchoring group. This dual phosphonic acid configuration enhances substrate binding on indium tin oxide (ITO), improves SAM uniformity, and increases interfacial stability. Furthermore, the ethylene bridge facilitates efficient intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) from the electron-donating triphenylamine unit to the electron-accepting bisphosphonic acid group. This ICT induces significant charge redistribution in TPA2P, resulting in a deep HOMO level at -5.47 eV. This optimized energy alignment reduces interfacial energy losses and significantly enhances hole extraction efficiency. As a result, TPA2P-based inverted PSCs achieve a high power conversion efficiency of 26.11%, an exceptional fill factor of 85.03%, and outstanding operational stability under continuous illumination. These findings provide an effective molecular design strategy for advancing high-performance and stable perovskite photovoltaics.
